A cross-sectional household survey used multistage sampling to identify migrant families in eastern North Carolina.
Three hundred adult caretakers of 1 (per household) randomly selected child <13 years old.
Fifty-three percent of the children had an unmet medical need. The most common reasons for unmet medical need were lack of transportation (80%) and lack of knowledge of where to go for care (20%). Unmet medical need was associated inversely with less than very good health (odds ratio [OR]: 0.31; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.16-0.61) and less than high school caretaker education (OR: 0.62; 95% CI: 0.39-0.98) and was associated directly with 1) having bed-days due to illness (OR: 2.46; 95% CI: 1.42-4.26), 2) lacking an annual well examination (OR:1.89; 95% CI: 1.12-3.20), 3) transportation dependence (OR:1.97; 95% CI: 1.24-3.13), 4) female gender (OR: 1.69; 95% CI: 1.07-2.67), 5) preschool age (OR: 2.24; 95% CI: 1.28-3.92), and 6) very high caretaker work pressure (OR: 5.01; 95% CI: 2.98-8.42). Adjustment using multiple logistic regression reveals unmet medical need to be independently associated with preschool age (OR: 2.08; 95% CI: 1.05-4.13) and very high caretaker pressure to work (OR: 5.93; 95% CI: 3.24-10.85). Of sampled children, 27% were preschool aged, and 40% had caretakers categorized with high work pressure.
Medical-access barriers among migrant children are largely nonfinancial. Preschool-aged migrant children disproportionately experience unmet medical need. Decreasing forgone care among migrant children will likely require a combination of individual, health-system, and labor-policy modifications.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0031-4005</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1098-4275</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1542/peds.113.4.e276</identifier><identifier>PMID: 15060253</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Am Acad Pediatrics</publisher><subject><![CDATA[Adult ; Agriculture ; Caregivers ; Child ; Child Health Services - statistics & numerical data ; Child, Preschool ; Cross-Sectional Studies ; Educational Status ; Female ; Health Services Accessibility - statistics & numerical data ; Health Services Needs and Demand - statistics & numerical data ; Hispanic Americans - statistics & numerical data ; Humans ; Infant ; Logistic Models ; Male ; Medically Uninsured - ethnology ; Medically Uninsured - statistics & numerical data ; North Carolina ; Sampling Studies ; Surveys and Questionnaires ; Transients and Migrants - statistics & numerical data]]></subject><ispartof>Pediatrics (Evanston), 2004-04, Vol.113 (4), p.e276-e282</ispartof><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c333t-b41886d97f71900f9056092926f291d9b91d5cb18bcd8fcaff1c73d467e1b2603</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c333t-b41886d97f71900f9056092926f291d9b91d5cb18bcd8fcaff1c73d467e1b2603</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,776,780,27901,27902</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15060253$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Weathers, Andrea</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Minkovitz, Cynthia</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>O'Campo, Patricia</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Diener-West, Marie</creatorcontrib><title>Access to Care for Children of Migratory Agricultural Workers: Factors Associated With Unmet Need for Medical Care</title><title>Pediatrics (Evanston)</title><addtitle>Pediatrics</addtitle><description>To assess the correlates of unmet need for medical care among migrant children.
